Alaina Pinto is back on this week's Cannabis Coast to Coast News. Kerry Hinkle has the h**p story, and now the work begins for that industry to help define what a "quantifiable" amount of THC will work best for that industry and appease the ill informed law makers who created this mess in the first place.
There's two exclusive interviews in this full show, both are abbreviated but will be released in their entirety on Thursdays over the next two weeks. One is with Duane Boise of MMJ International Holdings, a group calling for the DEA to be overhauled, and asking for the dismissal of a deputy administrator who has stonewalled their FDA guided research on two cannabinoid medicinal trials.
The other is with Duncan Mackie, Ph.D. the Director of Pharmacology and Research for MedPharm, the science arm of Bud and Mary's. It was his research on testing products that exposed the challenges of testing a living plant medicine like cannabis, and why testing concentrates is far more accurate. 11 reporters contributed to this week's show from England to Canada, and of course Coast to Coast.
